Stay in the know with Microsoft Feed for Microsoft 365

 What is Microsoft Feed?  

Microsoft Feed is a feature in Microsoft 365 that helps you discover and learn about people and interests relevant at work. It shows you a mix of content and activity from across Microsoft 365 to help you stay connected to your colleagues and informed about what’s happening around you. You might see updates to documents you’re working on with others, links shared with you in Teams chats, suggested tasks to follow up, highlights about colleagues, and much more. It’s personalized to you so what you see in your feed is different from what your colleagues see in theirs. You can access it from different places including the Microsoft 365 app (office.com) by selecting Feed from the toolbar at the left.

Key Points: 

  • Microsoft Feed helps you discover and learn about people and interests relevant at work. 
  • The feed shows you a mix of content and activity from across Microsoft 365 to help you stay connected to your colleagues and informed about what’s happening around you. 
  • You might see updates to documents you’re working on with others, links shared with you in Teams chats, suggested tasks to follow up, highlights about colleagues, and much more. 
  • Microsoft Feed is personalized to you. What you see in your feed is different from what your colleagues see in theirs. 
  • You will only see documents or other content directly shared with you or that you have access to in any case. 
  • Documents are not stored in the feed. If you want to change permissions on any of your documents, you can do this from where the documents are stored, such as OneDrive or SharePoint. The feed always respects the permissions that are set on documents and will not show your documents to people who don’t have access to them. 
  • What you see in your feed is based on signals that you and your colleagues send when you work in Microsoft 365. For example, when you and a colleague attend the same meetings or update the same document, it’s a signal that you’re likely to be working together. Other signals are who you follow, who you communicate with through email or in Teams, who your manager is, and who has the same manager as you. 
  • As you and your colleagues work together in Microsoft 365, the feed will show new and updated information related to your work and your interests.
